Raw & Organic BluePrintJuice Review

Happy Wellness Wednesday Beauties! I hope you are enjoying your day so far. Since today is the day we focus on becoming a better person health wise I decided to do a review on a product called BluePrintJuice from the makers of the "BluePrintClense".

I have been a daily juicer for over (9) months now and I have been looking for new recipes and ingredients to try out. Lately I've been hearing about these juices for some time now and decided to try them. I stopped by my local Whole Foods Market to pick me up a few. You can also learn more about the company and purchase online just click -----> http://blueprintjuice.com/

Ok, Back to the review.........

I purchased the Beet, Apple, Carrot, Lemon, & Ginger (Pictured Below)

Also, I picked up the Organic Pineapple, Organic Apple, & Organic Mint (Pictured Below)



 The Review:

The first flavor I tried was actually really good ( I had my doubts because it seems like it had a lot going on) but it has a nice "earthy" taste to it, I'm thinking because of the beets.  The apple & lemon creates a nice flavor together and I really enjoyed it!

The Second flavor was really refreshing! I had this flavor right after having a great outdoor work out with my family. After drinking it I felt really hydrated and it felt like I was getting my strength back (My legs were sooooo weak after my work out. I haven't done 150 count straight with a jump rope since I was in well.......Elementary LOL (I'm in my 20's now :-)

The Cons: 
In my opinion because I am a self proclaimed "Frugal Chick" the price is a little steep. Each bottle cost $9.99 and is 16oz. I believe because these juices are all Organic, Raw, Unpasteurized, and Kosher (Don't forget are extremely nutritional) that the price matches the quality, but for someone who is trying to stay on a budget this may be a tad to expensive (especially if your trying to purchase more then one. 


Thanks for Reading!

   I saw this photo online and couldn’t help but to make this our very 1st “Wellness Wednesday” post. Remember this before photo from the BET Awards in 2007? Well, it has been reported that Oscar-winning comedienne Monique has lost 82 Pounds by working out and changing her eating habits. Reaching her highest at 300 pounds now weighing 218, she works out daily posting photos & videos to her twitter account and her website www.moniqueworldwide.org  as an inspiration to her followers.


As far as her diet is concerned she eats fruits, veggies, and fish. The comedienne says other then that “She stays away from any other meat that has a face because they have parents; they come from a family. Really, it's like, if we were back in the dinosaur days, the dinosaurs were eating the people. You see? I want to really not eat anything with a face; anything that's living," Mo'Nique says half-jokingly.



I think this is a great accomplishment for the comedienne/actress and I wish her much success in reaching her goal weight of 190. What are your thoughts?
